If you did not opt water-cooling, you'll end up with a Zalman CNPS 9700 cooler which for transportation reasons is not yet installed. An easy job though, just apply a little thermal paste (comes with the kit) on the processor, secure the Zalman CNPS 9700 cooler with the retention bracket and two screws .. and you are set. We can now power up the PC (after connecting monitor, keyboard etc).
